I would say Hankook. I actually have had all 3, and for the money, Hankook beats out the rest in my opinion. I was very pleased with that tire brand.

+1 , also had all three at one time. Currently running Hankook on my R8 and will replace the RFT's on my "is" with Hankook shortly.

I have invo's right now and I am happy enough with them, but will be switching to v12's for my next set, basically because they are a bit less expensive and based on reviews are at least as good, if not better, than the Invo's.

All 3 are great tires. If you plan on getting the most mileage out of the tires possible, I would go for the FK452's since they offer higher tread wear of the 3.

Invo's are awesome for general driving crusing (decent grip and quiet), however, I beg to differ on spirited driving. I'm not too keen on the sidewall.
